Hello!
17,000 * 85% = 14,450
85% of $17,000 is $14,450.
RemarkIf you don't start exactly the right way, you can get into all kinds of trouble. This is just one of those cases. I think the best way to start is to divide both terms by x^(1/2)
Step OneDivide both terms in the numerator by x^(1/2)
y= 6x^(1/2) + 3x^(5/2 - 1/2)
y =6x^(1/2) + 3x^(4/2)
y = 6x^(1/2) + 3x^2 Now differentiate that. It should be much easier.
Step TwoDifferentiate the y in the last step.
y' = 6(1/2) x^(- 1/2) + 3*2 x^(2 - 1)
y' = 3x^(-1/2) + 6x I wonder if there's anything else you can do to this. If there is, I don't see it.
I suppose this is possible.
y' = 3/x^(1/2) + 6x
y' =

Frankly I like the first answer better, but you have a choice of both.
Answer:
2,744 feet³
Step-by-step explanation:
Volume = Length * Width* Hight
A cube has all the sides equal in measure so Length and Width and Hight are equal and are given in the picture to be 14 feet.
V = 14 *14*14 = 2,744 cubic feet
2.43 + 1.62 + 124.77 = 178.82 Because all you have to do is add up all the numbers (Don't take the decimals out, leave them in) And then you get: 178.82.
Hope I helped!
